mkdir -p app/dir\$with\$dollar\$signs
echo "hello" > app/dir\$with\$dollar\$signs/hello\$dollar.txt

trying to open the above file using fzf.vim ends up opening app/dir/hello.txt instead of app/dir$with$dollar$signs/hello$dollar.txt, presumably because the dollar signs aren't escaped and are being interpreted as environment variables.

Some characters have special meaning : ($, | , ' ) in fzf .

They can't be escaped for now (See junegunn/fzf#444)

Oh, no you're right, it has to do with vim I think
